Do Your Part

Right now, we are in a situation that we’ve never encountered before. But despite the chaos this COVID-crisis has unleashed on the global economy, we are going to power through it. For coaches, mentors, and public speakers especially, it is our responsibility to get out there and speak up. We have to use our expertise to instill a sense of calm and optimism in our audience members because everything is going to be alright. Donnie has been doing everything in his power to make that happen. Our job is to identify opportunities, solve problems, and help people. That is our part. If the rest of us can stay home and prevent the hospitals from being overrun, this will all be over before we know it.

There is Always a Next Move

Donnie still has current revenue streams like podcast consulting and mastermind programs designed to help small businesses scale. But public speaking is the core of Donnie’s business. The other streams of revenue cannot recoup the losses quickly enough to cover the amount of cash that went into his upcoming live event. That is why he went back to the drawing board and made sure to adapt. Donnie came up with Success Champion Networking which provides business owners with a powerful platform to make meaningful business connections virtually. It combines the benefits of networking and education so that business owners can learn from each other’s experiences and plan for the future.
